THQ Jurassic Park III - Island Attack Gameboy Advance Action Review

Overall Rating
 5 of 5

Price Paid:  $29.00 from Walmart

Summary:
I happen to be a Jurassic Park fan and I've played many Jurassic Park games before, but this by far is the best!
The plane crash in the game is far different than from the movie. First you don't know what happened to the pilot and second the spinosaur didn't make you crash (those bird-brained pterosaurs did!). Running at first and getting a flare gun in the middle of the first level is pretty good sense you can use both abilities to do serious damage to the dinosaurs. Though you can't burn the dinosaurs to death with the flare gun, it's even better to see the dinosaurs fly after they are hit with stuff from the explosions (I always think of the song 'Fly like an Eagle').
Five of the eight levels have only one boss (of course levels 2 and 7 have many bosses), but level 8 is the hardest one, with 3 bosses! For level 8 I would announce that having all three credits and having plenty of health recovery items is the best thing to do to prepare for this level.
Overall, a very good game

Summary:
First let me take us back on the earlier line-up of Jurassic Park games for the Gameboy Advance:

DNA Factor: The game was horrible and got horrible reviews.
Park Builder: The game was average. Thats all.

Now we're up to the final game in the line-up, Island Attack. I'd just like to say: Third one's a charm. Yes, this game blows the other ones straight out of the water.

Summary:
GOOD:
Awesome game,
Any JP fan will enjoy it.
Worth every penny.

BAD:
Now this is the sad part of the game.
YOU CAN,T HAVE ANY WEAPON THAT CAN KILL THE DINOSAURS. :( (theres two weapons in the game the flare gun, (which stops the dino for about half a second) and the tranquilizer gun (which does a good job for a few seconds)

NOTE: you can kill dinos by shooting drum cans (cans full of gas) and gunpowder boxes.
As long as there close to the box

SUM:
Great game for strategy buffs.
Horrible game for shoot them up buffs.
